Thanks!!!

It is pre printed interfacing with the sewing lines and the cutting lines and even tells you which side goes "up" so when you turn the arcs right side out you can press them down on your fabric.

Now you tell me. I cut each piece by hand. Oh well.

So do you use it like paper piecing?[/quote]

You place the paper on the strip set and and pin. Then you
have 2 rows to sew for each arc. Very easy to do. Then you turn the arcs right side out and press to your block.Then you use invisible thread and do a blanket stitch around the arcs.
